A great place to introduce your family of all ages to basic scientific concepts in a fun hands on environment. If you think you may go more than once, buy a membership as it pays for itself in two visits. Also a little know, fabulous benefit of membership is that your membership will allow you free entry to over 90...

I go to the inner Harbor a lot, and I have never noticed this place. We were with friends who are members of the Richmond science center and they were able to get free admission here, so we joined them. Within 20 minutes, my 14-year-old told me, "I could spend all day here." We saw an IMAX show and two...

We took our five year old with cousin and friend for a fun-filled adventure. We made it through maybe half of what the Science Center had to offer and the kids can't wait to go again! Lots of fun for the kids and parents alike :) The location is spectacular! I could really see us making a day out of...

Bought a family membership for son's family and they use it regularly. Our 2 1/2 yer old grandson dragged us around the museum. He never gets tired of going there. Lots of hands on activities for kids of many ages. The pass gives the ability for guests to go on the same card so when grandparent visit, they can take...

This is a better spot for kids than adults, but still a cool place to go and get some knowledge. They had the bodies exhibit there a few years back, which was cool but creepy. They also have an Imax theater.

excellent, interactive museum for kids of many ages. Science, animals, space, etc. it's all there and even the most crazy kid can bounce from one exhibit to the next, while the more focused ones can linger. Nice location along the Harbor so you can make a day of it with the other activities nearby if you wish.
